Bells on Sunday comes from the church of St Botolph in the village of Stoke Albany, Northamptonshire. The original church was established before the Norman Conquest and is mentioned in the Domesday Book. The current building dates from the late 13th century with 19th century restorations. The church had five bells cast by Robert Taylor of St Neots in 1790. These were augmented in 1888 to a ring of six bells by the John Taylor foundry of Loughborough. The tenor bell weighs ten hundredweight and is in the note of A. We hear them ringing Surprise Major.
